Among Geoffrey Garrett's top priorities for his deanship is his desire to communicate Wharton’s value in fields beyond finance.

Seven games into the 2014 season, it's impossible to deny the sense of disappointment surrounding Penn football.

This weekend was one of ups and downs for Penn field hockey.

Led by junior captain Alexis Genske, the Quakers (7-14, 4-6 Ivy) cruised to a 3-1 victory at Columbia on Saturday.

The Red and Blue were scheduled to face Princeton on Halloween, but the Tigers were forced to forfeit.

However, there is one thing that tends to separate athletics from other extracurriculars: risk of serious injury. I can think of few other extracurriculars where there is a real possibility of suffering injuries such as concussions, torn ligaments and broken bones, including the spine.

I don’t believe in taking this life for granted. Obsessing over what happens after death is often a disguise for obsessing over death itself, and fearing the inevitable casts a bitter and unnecessary shadow over the time we still have. Others might feel that their time on earth is spoiled by its lack of permanence; I think that makes it all the more precious.

Penn alumni returned to Penn's campus this weekend for reunions and festivities as part of Homecoming weekend.

After defeating Lehigh earlier in the week, the Quakers continued their winning streak with another victory against Brown, 2-0, in conference play.

On Saturday, two Penn wrestlers, senior Lorenzo Thomas and senior C.J. Cobb, represented the Quakers in the National Wrestling Coaches Association All-Star Classic in front of over 5,000 fans.

What a way to go out. On Senior Day, the Quakers took their seniors out on top, outlasting Brown, 2-1, on a cold and rainy Saturday afternoon on Ellen Vagelos field.

After the women’s team was unable to break through at Heptagonals – finishing last as a team in the Ivy championship meet – junior Tom Awad took first in the men’s race, leading the men’s team to an impressive third-place finish.

A bitterly cold rain drove much of the anticipated Homecoming crowd away, and the Quakers didn’t give the several thousand that braved the rain many reasons to cheer.
